March 28, 2009 6:25 PM metformin is a god send! Even when I sometimes cheat and have a candybar, my metformin keeps my blood sugars in check. I have been routinely under 200 ever since I started on the medication. Pros:even blood sugars Cons:none |

March 21, 2009 11:16 PM I have been taking this pill for sometime and the only time it bothers me is when I don't take it with milk. Even if I have had a full meal, I still have to take it with milk. |
